Somehow I missed the release of this A24 movie this past Summer, but I’m glad I finally saw it this past weekend as it’s become one of my favorites! Marcel is an adorable and opinionated 1-inch-tall shell who lives with his grandmother, Connie. The two are the only remaining residents in their ‘town,’ that is …

FlixChatter Review: Hocus Pocus 2 (2022) – Not going to be a classic, but still a fun enough watch
Directed by: Anne Fletcher Like many millennials, watching Hocus Pocus this time of year is as much of a Halloween tradition as carving pumpkins. The 1993 film is a memorable, atmospheric, fun product of its time. So when it was announced that a sequel was being produced for DisneyPlus, my expectations were low, but I …
AMSTERDAM (2022) Review – Another proof that star power never guarantees a movie’s quality
When I watched the trailer of Amsterdam back in July, I could barely pay attention to the story thanks to the star-studded ensemble.

The characters' sinister facial expressions reminded me of the cheesy Snapchat filter smile effect from 2018's Truth or Dare, one of the worst horror movies I've reviewed, so my hopes weren't high. However, my aunt mentioned …
See How They Run (2022) Review – Saoirse Ronan + Sam Rockwell delight in a farcical whodunit
Most people know Agatha Christie for her detective novels and there seems to be a resurgence for them in the movies lately with Kenneth Branagh's Poirot movies, Murder On The Orient Express and Death On The Nile. Christie didn't just write novels, she also wrote a murder mystery play The Mousetrap, the world's longest-running live …
GREENLAND (2021) Review – A surprisingly grounded disaster movie featuring Gerard Butler’s best performance in years
It’s been all over the news this weekend that NASA is launching its DART mission, aka Double Asteroid Redirection Test, tonight. Its spacecraft will deliberately slam into an asteroid as part of planetary defense. So it’s really kismet that my hubby and I chose to watch Greenland on Saturday night, before we actually read about …
